38 acres is 1,655,280 square feet, or 153,781 square metres
15 hectares is 150,000 square metres. A hectare is 100m x 100m: converting from hectares to square metres or square kilometres is super easy, unlike acres to square feet or square miles. (A hectare is technically not an SI unit, but an older metric one, consisting of 100 ares, which in turn are 10m x 10m.)
Anyway … it sounds like this would be light industrial space for tech companies, with multiple buildings and roads in between. Not sure how many floors, how many roads, how much office but the range of floor space is probably within range but not high density.
It would be way better to build one enormous building and combine together all the space that would have been wasted on utterly useless bits of grass into one nice park in the middle, something like this:

Apparently this has the same density as the usual suburban dreck it replaced, but it’s mostly parkland.
